Lets assume the colour of consciousness is White.
Then we as manifested beings of consciousness, we display, transform and reflect the various hues of the spectrum of this colour.
Like the vast sky that is a canvas to the beautiful rainbow.
Is not the "Self" or Soul a prism that creates the rainbow of emotions.
Its really depends on us.
On how we feel, think.. depending on this we perceive.
If I am in a calm sacred mood , i can forgive so easily.
But if I am restless, i am more subject to anger and hate.
Are we not then just reflections of our thoughts, feelings and external energy fields.
Sometimes we are in Light and sometime in darkness...
We never lose our capacity to reflect the rainbow but at times we are not in enough light to display the colour of life.
Here is something interesting on colours: (http://iit.bloomu.edu/vthc/design/psychology.htm)
I have re-arranged the sequence based on the Rainbow.
Red is the color that we pay the most attention to. It is the warmest and most energic color in the spectrum. Colour of Love & danger !!
Also a Colour of desire, speed, strength, violence, anger, emergency exit signs, stop signs and blood. Red can evoke a fight-or-flight response, raise blood pressure and make the heart beat faster. Red would not be the color of choice for psychiatric wards, prisons or a hospital.
_______________________________________________________________
Orange is a combination of yellow and red. Orange is considered a warm color like red, but to a lesser extent; orange expresses energy. It has luminous qualities and has been used for attention-getting purposes, such as on caution signs.Orange brings up memories of fall leaves, pumpkins and Halloween. It symbolizes balance, warmth, enthusiasm, vibrance, flamboyancy, and is demanding of attention.
_________________________________________________________________
Yellow represents joy, happiness, optimism, idealism, imagination, hope, sunshine, summer, gold, philosophy, dishonesty, cowardice, betrayal, jealousy, covetousness, deceit, illness, hazard, spirtuality and inspiration. The yellow rose is a symbol of friendship, less passionate or threatening than red ones.In Asia yellow is sacred, and imperial.

Blue represents peace, tranquility, calm, stability, harmony, unity, trust, truth, confidence, conservatism, security, cleanliness, order, loyalty, sky, water, cold, technology, and depression.
Blue , one side means calm, stable and secure. But lacks excitement and hence can be associated with depression. Blue slows the pulse, lowers the body temp. and reduces appetite.
A holy colour but to the young and excited may be depressing.

Green, one of most-often cited favorite colors. It represents nature, environment, health, good luck, renewal, youth, vigor, spring, generosity, fertility, jealousy, inexperience, envy, misfortune."Its cool quality soothes, calms, and has great healing powers." It is often worn in operating rooms by surgeons.

Purple represents royalty, spirituality, nobility, ceremony, mystery, transformation, wisdom, enlightenment, cruelty, arrogance, mourning. Purple is considered an exotic color. Purple dye was made from the mucous gland of a snail. It required thousands of snails to yield 1 gram of dye causing it to be a color only nobles could afford. Today purple is a trendy color targeting creative types.

Black is the absence of light and therefore, of color. It represents power, sexuality, sophistication, formality, elegance, wealth, mystery, fear, evil, anonymity, unhappiness, depth, style, evil, sadness, remorse, anger, underground, good technical color, mourning and death.In speech we say "Don't let a black cat cross your path", "Black Market" or "Black Monday".
These Black is in Fashion... Black - Power, Sex, Unconscious Pleasure..
____________________________________________________________
White is what we see when all colors come together in perfect balance.It represents reverence, purity, simplicity, cleanliness, peace, humility, precision, innocence, youth, birth, winter, snow, good, sterility, and marriage. White is the colour of Birth & Death. The canvas for the reflections of the Soul.
Each day we are a different reflection.
Lets not judge others based on this , nor feel victims of any situation.
But gracefully and gently unfold to the day, accept each moment, each mood of each person, from the bright mornings, towards the transforming afternoons slowly to a graceful evening of refelction and finally immerse in the ocean of consciousness.
Amen,
Shradha
